It's been 12 days and I can't even see the extraction sites. They appear no different than the pores in my skin. The beard area heals remarkably well. Those who have had beard hair extractions without ACell say the same thing. ACell seems to cause the donor area so stay pink longer.

That is awesome and I really appreciate your information as Cole and Gho are the only to surgeons I would want to have a ht with because of the minimal/no scarring and advancements they are both making.
So essentially, ACell is still in it's early stages and Cole will perfect it even more in years to come....but if one got on average 50% donor regrowth from him and had say...6000 available in the donor area...then instead of 6000 he could get 9000+ total grafts using ACell? (given time and money were no issue)

What I am most interested is how many hairs regrow in the recipient area. Regrowing in the donor is an added bonus.
Its now expected to be 99% growth in the recipient area. With this kind of procedure I would accept 85% if we can get 50 % regeneration in the donor.
Is this possible?
